Gregg Perez at Rollin Township’s Ramsdell Nature Park in March. Artwork copyright donation to benefit local organizations

By JACKIE KOCH ARTWORK BY GREGG PEREZ [email protected]

Tecumseh resident Gregg Perez, artist and nature enthusi- ast, creates artwork of wildlife by carving images in a process known as linocut or woodcut, which results in a block to pro- duce prints. Several years ago Perez, who wanted to support the River Raisin Watershed Council (RRWC), decided to donate six of his carved images to the council for them to use for fundraising purposes, and sent those images to Carley Kratz, the director at the time. River Raisin Damsel Fly Nymph The RRWC used the designs Watershed Council to make posters, which they sold for a small profit until about three years ago, accord- ing to Perez. “They were mak- ing some money on the posters, and during one of the Tecumseh Art Walks they had a bunch of the posters at the Evans Street Station, where I was located, and the people from the Clinton Arts Center saw them,” he said. “They approached me and the director about turning them into ceramic tiles.” The images of a heron, a fish, a belted kingfisher, a frog with morel mushroom, a Water Lily and Fish Kingfisher damsel fly nymph and a lily pad lent themselves to a pletho- ra of possibilities. According to Perez, the RRWC and the CAC have been in negotiations to figure out how to legally pos- sess the copyright for the works that Perez was willing to donate. He signed over the copyrights in early spring, and the contract between the two entities was finalized in the last week, allowing the CAC to pro- duce and sell items they create and split the proceeds with the RRWC after all expenses have Frog and Toadstoole Fish been covered. Stephen May, current RRWC quality by what insects can or Does he consider himself an executive director, said the cannot tolerate pollution. “I like environmentalist? “I’m a con- CAC will use those images to what they’re doing,” he said. “I cerned citizen, and I’m very produce ceramic tiles, mugs, t- think the River Raisin has been concerned now, especially now shirts, coasters and more, and used and abused for a long that the current administration that the watershed council will time, and I’d like to see the is basically anti-science and continue to sell items with the water quality get better within wants to abolish the EPA, and heron image, which has been the watershed.” He sees many basically wants to deregulate used as their logo, on their own areas where water pollution and allow corporations to pol- website. “Our marketing com- could be improved. “It’s about lute freely,” Perez said. “We pany looked at those prints and education, it’s about working can’t really depend on the fed- they picked out that black print with farmers and working with eral government to save us, so with the heron.
